[Solved] recent posts displays *threads*, not posts

[Giorgio Chiodi]

I noticed the recent posts widget displays new threads, but not the content of the posts.

BUMP @julian @baris @psychobunny

Upgrade https://github.com/designcreateplay/nodebb-widget-essentials it should have a new type of widget for recent posts. You will need the latest NodeBB code for it to work though.

[Giorgio Chiodi]

so i just ./nodebb upgrade ?

[baris]

git pull
./nodebb upgrade

If you don't see the new widget after that try npm install nodebb-widget-essentials

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@baris I'm getting an error while upgrading

error: [upgrade] Errors were encountered while updating the NodeBB schema: Error: ERR Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value

[baris]

Check out this thread https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/issues/1163 it might be the same problem.

tedr56 created this issue in designcreateplay/NodeBB

Thanks for the report @giorgio-chiodi, what's the line before that error say?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

ahhh, don't know I went with set schemaDate 1393113600000 and it works now

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian it's this one:

info: [2014/2/20] Activating NodeBB Essential Widgets - skipped

[Giorgio Chiodi]

yes it works now! how do I "solve" this?

[julian]

No problem, I marked it as solved for you

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian eh I know I'm a pain in the ass, but now the thread post is not displayed. Could we have both the post text and the thread title?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian Ok I edited line 12 in recentposts.tpl and replaced it with

<a href="{relative_path}/topic/{posts.topic.slug}#{posts.pid}">[[category:posted]] in {posts.topic.title}</a>

I'd also like to do it on the homepage, but {categories.topic_title} doesn't work

[julian]

@giorgio-chiodi Are you referring to the recent topics widget?

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian Hello Julian, yes I've modified the recentposts.tpl file to add the topic title in the recent posts widget
I'd like to do the same thing on the homepage, I don't know what variable to fill in

[julian]

Hm... so the "recent posts" widget is not showing the title, and the "recent topics" widget is not showing the post text?

Perhaps @baris can help you

[Giorgio Chiodi]

@julian No wait now I'm confused.
I wanted to show the post content in the "recent posts" widget, and now it is possible with the latest update.
I have lost the ability to read also the topic title, which I fixed by manually adding {posts.topic.title} in the tpl file.
What I'd like to add now is the same functionality {posts.topic.title} in the home page, but I tried adding it and it doesn't work.

Try

<!-- BEGIN posts -->
	<div class="category-box">
		<div class="post-preview">
                                {categories.posts.topic.title}
				<img src="{categories.posts.picture}" class="pull-left" />
			<p class=""><strong>{categories.posts.username}</strong>: {categories.posts.content}</p>
		</div>
	</div>
<!-- END posts -->

in home.tpl

@baris yesssss!
